Vashon Solar Tour: June 30th, 9am - 5pm

This ground mount installation is one of the many systems available to view during the Vashon Solar Tour

Artisan Electric will once again be hosting the 4th Annual Vashon Solar Tour on June 30th from 9am - 5pm.  The self guided tour will feature recent solar installations around the island, giving those interested in renewable energy a chance to view different systems and chat with  islanders about their experience going solar.

Artisan Electric asks that you follow tour signs; parking and sites will be well marked.  Enjoy yourself, ask questions, and most importantly have a great day!

Vashon Solar Tour maps can be picked up at Artisan Electric's booth at the Caulk the Rock festival from 10am - 3pm, scanning the QR code, clicking the individual site links, or by clicking the online site map link below.
